ALSRT is looking for enthusiastic members to serve on important committees. There are over 250 members in the ALSRT but less than 5% volunteer their time and talents to serving on a committee or running for office.  Volunteering is simple, and we need you now more than ever.

  • Committee members should be enthusiastic supporters of ALSRT, promoting involvement and membership.
  • Committee members should be able to build collaborative relationships, and work well with others.
